LACONIA — Ally Collina, 26, of Gilford, picketed the Family Division of the Laconia District Court yesterday to decry what she considers to be discrimination.
Collina believes that a switch in gender from male to female is the reason she is not allowed contact with her fiance's 2-1/2-year-old son.
Holding a sign that read "I am trans gender not Casey Anthony" in reference to the Florida woman accused of killing her daughter and just acquitted, and another sign reading, "People are not born equal, they are just Born," Collina joined others, including a 6-year-old holding a sign saying "I Love Auntie Ally," picketing the court yesterday afternoon.

Her criminal record doesn't help her case, and neither does the fact that the kid isn't her's.

There really is nothing new there from teh last time we saw an article on the case...it is a bitter divorce and the other party simply took a page out of the Divorce101 playbook. Playing the 'victim' role in the media and claiming discrimination does no good for the case and actually draws more attention to the very issues that ARE legitimate and that WILL be considered by the Court. But, again, some people have to look for 'discrimination' under every rock...

Thank you for the clarifications Ann. I have to confess, on the basis of what I've read, she doesn't have a lot to stand on.

I searched just by her name, nothing transgender, and right there on the first page of search results is a listing for her on a transgender dating site. I'm not judging her - but other people are and when this is one of the first things they come across, its not that she's transgendered, its anything but.
